2024 Map of Hickory Tavern

About this map

Hickory Tavern serves as the central hub of this South Carolina landscape, situated where several local roads converge near the southern edge of the quadrangle. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, most notably North Rabon Creek and South Rabon Creek, which drain the rolling terrain of the Laurens and Greenville county border. For genealogists, the map is particularly detailed regarding religious and burial sites, documenting locations such as the Green Pond United Methodist Church Graveyard and New Prospect Church Graveyard. Along the western boundary, the Reedy River flows past Tumbling Shoals, a name that suggests the river's natural fall line and historical utility. The rural character of the region is further evidenced by family-named landmarks like Babb Cem and Henderson Cem, alongside traditional church sites including Dials Church and Rabun Creek Church, which have anchored these communities for generations.
